Rex Brown is not only one of the best bassists in Heavy Music history, but also a man that never bites his tongue. It was recently announced that Brown will be joining forces with De Capo Press to write a memoir entitled "Official Truth, 101 Proof: The Inside Story Of Pantera". Due for release in the Fall of 2012, the book has been described as a "starkly honest and revealing".
As we all know, Pantera saved Heavy Music in the early 90's thanks to their vulgar display of crushing Metal. Their phenomenal 9 studio albums, were only topped by their amazing stage show. When Pantera came to town, nobody was safe and their explosive live show left many Panteraheads scarred for life! They say that glory always has a very high prize to pay, in the case of the Kings Of Metal this is an understatement.
Now the whole story about Pantera will be told by one of the pivotal members of the band. Fans can expect the whole truth and nothing but the truth, in a story about a band from Texas that went against all odds and went from triumph into tragedy after the assassination of Dimebag Darrell Abbott on December 8, 2004 at the Alrosa Villa in Columbus, Ohio.
